Kante doesn't play with Messi, Cristiano, Xavi, Iniesta, Benzema, Modric etc... he got this maybe insane hype but because he's simply the best player of a team that won CL, nobody cares of casemiro or busi when you have players that scores 15 goals in a CL campaign lol

Kante hasnt even been the best midfielder at Chelsea this season let alone best in world.

Mount has comfortably been better than him.

Messi is to introverted to move. Otherwise he would have moved years ago.
Its also why he sucks at penalties under pressure.
As barca fans we should be happy with this. Without Messi we barely get top 4.
Now he might still win la liga one more time.

Barca have a far better squad the teams 5th/6th in La Liga.

Would easily be top four without Messi.

We might have a decent squad but somehow someway our deffence would still let goals in every game and there wouldn't be someone in attack to score enough.


With Messi around there's still a fear factor among other teams but take him out and every team from mid to the top would bitch us around.


Imagine a season with Griezmann scoring again 10-13 goals , Dembele 5-7 and Braithwaite around 5 with Pique - Lenglet in our deffence fucking up everything and letting in 2 goals/ game.


This would be a disaster.

Better squad does not mean a better team and we all saw that many times !! we keep the upper hand on those team "most of the time" because someone does something amazing in the attack

If we keep Koeman only individualities will save us in the end, the only job Koeman need to do to win la Liga is organise the defense.

Messi contributed to more than 50 goals this season without even taking into account the playmaking and we ended up 2 points from Sevilla and they too butchered their end of the season.

Better squad does lead to better team in majority of cases but if you want to break it down to team then... Barca have a far better team than 5/6th placed teams in La Liga without Messi.

Folk are off their rocker if think Barca struggle for top four without Messi.

For all the brilliance Messi often brings on ball there is also issues with fitting him into a simple system for Barca.

Not just case of lose 50 goals.

Oh no sorry but IT IS the case of loosing the 50 goals, there is no magic trick , NO ONE on this team currently can break the game like Messi and sometimes Busi.

A good team need a good manager and we don't have that, and as a team we played like shit most of our goals were throwing balls & some tricks from Messi or Griez/Busi.

Laporta: “What happens with Leo is not a matter of money, but a matter of the future & sports. He wants to continue with this idea because he wants a team that can help him win leagues, Champions [League] and titles in the short-term”

win CL with Winaldum, Depay, Aguero and Eric Garcia

No it isnt.

Barca would not play with ten men if Messi left and sqaud/team is far better than 5/6th placed sides.

Busquets costs more goals than he produces so that logic falls flat on him.

He just needed his amigo, Aguero. At least he has someone to eat breakfast with again.

They can scratch their beards together at the next annual CL thrashing. He was sulking alone against PSG. :console:

Seriously though, either winning is not a top priority anymore or he has terrible judgment.

You're welcome

Relax, not gonna happen. Trust me. We'll be banned for the coming two CL editions and after that Aguero's contract will have ended and he will have left us.
